    The site of the former clinic in Sahlenburg, also known as the Sahlenburg Sea Hospital, is a fascinating lost place in Cuxhaven – a place that combines history, decay, and mystery.

    🏥 Background: The Sahlenburg Sea Hospital
    Originally, the site was part of the Helios Sea Hospital, which specialized in medical care and rehabilitation.


    The Nordheim Foundation played a central role in the care and support of patients.

    After its closure, the site fell into increasing disrepair and became a popular destination for urban explorers, photographers, and the curious.
